The Role
We are seeking a founding Engineering Manager to lead and bootstrap our newest team: Core Frontier. This team sits at the vital intersection of deep product innovation and the actual customer experience. Your mission is to ensure that the sophisticated features developed across the Core Identity organization (such as Native to Web, Cross-App Access and Custom Token Exchange) are translated into a seamless and intuitive journey for our users. You will act as the champion for a complete and coherent product experience, bridging the gap between complex internal logic and the polished final result our customers interact with every day.
As the inaugural manager for Core Frontier, you will lead the hiring and onboarding of a high-caliber team in Bengaluru while establishing the operational rhythms that drive success. You will partner with global engineering leaders to maintain our high standards for security and reliability, ensuring that every release meets the rigorous quality bar our customers expect. While your primary focus is on people leadership and strategic team building, we are looking for a leader who stays close to the craft. You will have the opportunity to remain hands-on, contributing to the codebase and architectural decisions as your management priorities allow.
If you are a builder who thrives on creating high-performing teams and cares deeply about the final "feel" of a product, we want to talk to you.
